The Irony Of Steve Irwin’s Death

By Daniel Miessler on September 5th, 2006: Tagged as Musings

Not that I want to cast his death in a humorous light or anything, but I find it quite ironic that while I now harbor only a healthy respect for animals that kill people every day, I am currently deathly afraid of stingrays.

    The strange thing is that a stingray is by far not the most dangerous animal he’s dealt with. They’re dangerous (obviously), but not as dangerous as, say, a cobra.

    I am not afraid of any animals on earth except for the most dangerous animal of all. It kills indiscriminately, without any cause or remorse. It can change from calm friend, to deadly killer in an instant, without any warning. Want to know the name of this animal?

    MAN.

    That, is the only animal I fear.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one finding this slightly ironic..

    RipRap: You’re an idiot.
